Has anyone taken fenugreek (herbal supplement) for any reason and gained weight?
I started taking it about a week ago to increase my breast size and was unaware of the possible side effect of weight gain. After reading into it, apparently it has been used before to help treat eating disorders as well.

Just wanted to get some feed back to see if anyone has personally used it and what the out come was for you.

    Hello fellow Canadian!

    I use the ground seed in Indian cooking and I often toss the entire seed into my sprouting blends, but I've never gained from it, (or not that I've noticed). Although, I have noticed that your pores emit a unique odor after you consume it. It's not offensive, but I won't eat it if I'm going out within a couple of days.

    How long ago did you start taking it?

    Not even a full week. Im going to keep taking it but just keep watch on my hunger and with using MFP I can make sure I don't over eat due to feeling hungry. I get a lot of fibre and protein in my diet in hopes to keep that 'full' feeling
